Convince me not to buy this Sup Forums

Convince me not to buy this Sup Forums.

I already have a decent desktop (i5 + RX480), but I don't have a laptop.

I want something light with good build quality. I'm too poor for a Mac, and I hate windows.

I can get a brand new Chromebook pixel for $320 with the following:
I5
4GB RAM
64GB of flash
2560x1700 touchscreen
Good speakers
Good touchpad
Supposedly it is the fastest normiebook laptop

Now the following bothers me:
-Drivers may not be available for Windows and Linux for touchpad/keyboard (can't verify).
-It's not receiving Android apps, but I don't know what I'd use that for.
-Its a 2013 model laptop
-I'm afraid there is something I'm not thinking about

Am I stupid for wanting to drop $300 on this? It's only $100 more than a typical Chromebook, and I don't have to deal with a shitty 1280x800 screen with a Celeron.

It runs ChromeOS, so it's marginally more useful than a clod of dirt.

Discord, Spotify, and Office all have proper web apps.

I'm trying to figure out what I won't be able to do on it over a normal laptop other than retro gaming (which could still be possible if there are drivers for it with crouton).

Can you think of something major that doesn't run on chrome?

unless you just want to shitpost, you will fucking hate/love the thing because it's beautiful but you need to install linux because ChromeOS is just ShitpostOS.
This coming from a guy that bought one just to fuck around and uses it every other day to browse the web and annoy people here.

There are Dell XPS Ubuntu laptops too

For $320 new?

And it appears that Ubuntu has drivers for it.
Windows doesn't look as optimistic, but that's not a deal breaker.

you can install crouton and have all the linux shit, but there's virtually no local storage so it's effectively a glorified thin client with a mediocre battery life

If all you're doing is web browsing, word processing, watching netflix and stuff, it's all you need. It has powerful guts, so it'll do what it does now well, and for a very long time.

For anything else though, literally any other computer is better.

If you're going to buy a laptop you might as well get a fully functional one. A Chromebook is a neutered laptop.

64GB is plenty for me.

If I were to install Linux I would just install it natively. Same if I decided to infest it with Windows.

Is try ChromeOS first though.
